This year's Tucson Show was just as enjoyable as last year! It was great to catch up with so many folks in the lapidary field.

Thanks to all the attendees, Ultra Tec family and cousins for stopping by at the TGMS, the TFF, and any of the other booths we were represented at! We look forward to doing it all again in 2016!!

In the past several years we've had a lot going on - with a number of new products and product upgrades being introduced.  Now, it's time for us to take a breath and appraise where we are - and, as you will see below --  we are making some common sense adjustments in our product offerings.

We do want to make clear that we will continue to be active in terms of improving Ultra Tec products.  In cutting out some products, we are "clearing the deck" so that we can be more active in new developments.  

As pleased as we are with our gem faceting products, there's always something that deserves attention - and we mean to provide that attention.

Did you see the words "cutting out" ?  -  yes...here's the story:

*  We no longer offer the V2 faceting machine.  As a practical matter, the V5 has taken over - it has become 'the' Ultra Tec Faceting Machine. The V5's success is a "fait accompli" - it has been the result of the V5's being a significant technical upgrade - and, with a few years under its belt, its having received universal acceptance. 

We will of course continue to support the V2 - for repairs and upgrades

* Similarly, and for the same reasons, we no longer offer the Concave machine.  The Fantasy Machine, having all the capabilities of the Concave machine - plus much more - has come to dominate these sales.

  

We welcome all our ULTRA TEC cousins as FANS -- your, pictures, videos, experiences, comments and suggestions are always welcome!

INTRODUCING...

For Daniel Andersson, cutting gemstones had been a hobby for over 25 years.  Then, 3 years ago, Daniel made it his profession.  He started SG Lapidary, operating from his home in the countryside just outside Stockholm.  He offers lapidary equipment, supplies and faceting rough.

Upon starting SG Lapidary, Dan obtained a new Ultra Tec V5, and he loves it. He says that his faceting soon "reached a new level".  Dan writes further: "...My 12 year old daughter, Linnea, loves the V5 as passionately as I do and she often demonstrates gem cutting at gem shows.  This picture shows Linnea at home, working on the V5. 

 You can check out Daniel's website at: www.sglapidary.com .  His telephone number is 73 841 94 61.  You would enjoy a visit to him - see the V5 in action.
